I Want To: Lube my chain

Lubing your chain is quick and easy. It is also the best way to protect your investment. A properly lubed chain will last longer and provide a smoother, more enjoable ride.

There are two great ways to lube your chain:

1. Apply one drop of lube to each individual link. This method takes a bit longer, but ensures that ever link and roller is properly lubed. Wipe off excess lube with a clean rag if required.

2. Aim the bottle of lube at the chain over the cassette. While backpedalling, squeeze a steady stream of lubricant until the chain is fully coated. Wipe off excess lube with a clean rag if required.
